“Dance with the Devil” by Immortal Technique is about a boy named Billy Jacobs and his struggles of living in the ghetto. Coming from a dysfunctional family and living in the projects in New York, Billy wanted to make a name for himself. He participated in many criminal acts in order to climb up the ranks but one even changed his life forever. This song brings art and crime together because it tells a true story about a criminal but rather than telling it as a documentary they incorporated music and turned this criminal act into a rap song.
